James Healy (sp?) was absolutely amazing!! He put us at ease when he walked through the door. He was able to connect with us as a family. He provided great clarity to his recommendations. He was flexible with the plan changing as needed and gave us his card for future reference. He shared the why he wasn't worried about a test and it put us at ease. It is always scary when it comes to your children. I so grateful for Dr Healy and how he made us feel supported, understood, and confident in his expert expertise we saw him for.THANK YOU!!
